Overview

Anyware Software Client for Windows

Welcome to the Software Client for Windows Administrators' Guide.

Anyware Software Clients are applications that establish PCoIP sessions with remote Windows, Linux, or macOS desktops. Connections can be made to Anyware agents installed on virtual or physical machines, or to Remote Workstation Cards in physical workstations.

Using Displays

Using Displays

When you connect to a PCoIP session, the Software Client for Windows shows your remote desktop as one or more displays. The number of displays it shows is constrained by your local system's available monitors (and the PCoIP protocol itself, which supports up to four monitors).

Selecting Audio Devices

Selecting Audio Devices in Session

While in session, you can select audio devices that will be forwarded to the agent. If more than one audio device is connected to the client machine, you can select up to two audio output devices, and one audio input device after a PCoIP session has been established.

Warning

Connecting USB Devices

Connecting USB Devices

Remote desktops can use USB devices that are attached to the client, using a process called redirection. USB devices are not automatically redirected to the remote desktop; they must be specifically connected to the session.
